change data source from sharepoint to a network drive

[Anonymous]

Hi

I am having a problem trying to change the data source of all the tables in my current report from a folder in a sharepoint site to a network drive.

I have tried to go to Edit Queries, then click on the Source, it shows the current URL adress but it doesn't give me an option to "browse" to select the newtwork drive.

Please help.

Hi

No, it does work. Still doesn't give me a Browse option to choose the folder from the network.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Try to get the goal URL by clicking Get Data to connect to the network drive, then replace the current URL address of Source with the goal URL .
